Do you use the Hibernation function? If not, you can free up a lot of space by bringing up a
Command window (do so with Admin rights) and entering:
powercfg -h off
Likewise, in most cases one can reduce the size of the paging file to something more sensible.
Windows will default to making the file very large if you have a lot of RAM, but really it doesn't
need to be that big. 4GB is typically fine for most tasks.
